Abstract: The European Union countries have different rates of economic development, therefore, in the European process of policy making for regional development, having as goal the unique convergence at European levels, one must take into account the stages covered by every country, especially the newly accepted into European Union. The work presents the implementation situation of the ISPA Program in the period compraised between 2000 and 2006 and is meant to analyse the way European funds had been attracted and the way the objectives stipulated in the partnership for joining, signed between The European Union and Romania, had been accomplished in order to put into action the national upgrading programs for environment and transport. The analysis shows the important malfunctions in absorbing the ISPA funds in comparison to the allocated funds, though, from the point of view of allocated funds by the European Commission, Romania stands on the second place, after Poland.
